Definitions

  • the invention relates to a heating device, in particular a gas boiler with the feature specified in the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such heaters are state of the art and are typically used to provide both the heat required for space heating and the heat required for hot water production.
  • a primary heat exchanger water is heated, typically by a combustion process or else by other suitable heat sources, to then either feed a heating circuit for the space heating or a heating circuit for the hot water preparation.
  • These are circulatory systems, which are controlled by means of a switching valve.
  • the heating circuit for space heating is connected in a circuit with the primary heat exchanger. If domestic water heating is required, which is triggered, for example, by opening a bleed valve, the switching valve is reversed, so that the secondary heat exchanger for domestic water heating is connected to the primary heat exchanger.
  • bypass line arranged parallel to the heating circuits, which connects the supply and return of the primary heat exchanger to one another and can be activated or deactivated via a typically pressure-controlled valve.
  • the invention has the object to improve a generic heater.
  • the heater according to the invention has at least two heating circuits, one for space heating and one for domestic water heating. It has a primary heat exchanger, is equipped with a circulation pump and with a changeover valve, which hydraulically integrates the primary heat exchanger in the first or second heating circuit.
  • the heating circuit for domestic water heating provided during operation of the heating circuit for space heating as a bypass line for the primary heat exchanger, wherein the switching valve forms the bypass valve or is used as a bypass valve.
  • the invention is particularly predestined for a heater that is designed as a gas boiler, ie for wall-mounted or stationary operated devices whose primary heat exchanger is gas-heated. In principle, however, the invention can be used in heaters of other types, heated, for example, with oil burners or district heating.
  • the basic idea of the present invention is to replace the separate bypass line which is typically provided in heating devices according to the prior art by an already existing line and to replace or form the bypass valve which is typically present in the prior art by means of the already existing changeover valve, ie. H. that the changeover valve also forms the bypass valve.
  • the inventive construction has a significant simplification of the heater in the construction result, since the otherwise required additional bypass line is eliminated and the bypass valve is integrated at least in the changeover valve or the changeover valve itself is used as a bypass valve by appropriate control means.
  • Such an arrangement is particularly advantageous in heaters, which largely dispense with a single piping but are constructed of plastic injection molded parts, which form the essential line connections that receive the valves, pump and sensors required for operation of the heater and are formed in one or more pieces.
  • the switching valve is also used as a bypass valve, then the usual bypass valve is no longer necessary.
  • appropriate control functions must be provided.
  • means for detecting the need for a bypass function are preferably provided in the region of the primary heat exchanger and further that a control is provided, which controls the switching valve for line connection with the heating circuit for domestic water heating when detecting the need for the bypass function .
  • Both the means for detecting the need for a bypass function and the control can be advantageously formed by already existing components. So typically temperature and / or pressure sensors are available, which can be used for this purpose.
  • the extent required control can be advantageously integrated into the required anyway for switching the valve control, so that the inventive solution without additional components, at least with little technical effort can be realized.
  • the means for detecting the need for a bypass function have a temperature sensor, which is preferably arranged in the region of the primary heat exchanger and thus can detect an inadmissibly high temperature rise in this area in time is particularly advantageous.
  • a temperature sensor is inexpensive, long-term stable and easy to arrange.
  • the means for detecting the need for a bypass function may comprise a flow meter.
  • the flowmeter has the advantage that it early, so before one unwanted high temperature in the area of the primary heat exchanger can determine whether the heating circuit for the room heating is continuous or not. Only if this is not continuous, the bypass function must be activated.
  • the means for detecting the necessity of a bypass function may comprise a pressure sensor.
  • a pressure rise in the area of the supply line to the heating circuit for the space heating can be determined and thus the bypass function can be activated accordingly.
  • Pressure sensors are typically installed in heaters of the aforementioned type, so that with an appropriate arrangement an already existing component can be used. Pressure sensors are also cost-effective to manufacture and long-term stability in the application.
  • pressure limiting means are advantageously provided in the changeover valve, which form a further line connection between the primary heat exchanger and the bypass line when a predetermined pressure is exceeded.
  • the switching valve for actuation in two modes can be formed, namely a first mode for fast opening and a second mode for slowly closing.
  • another slow opening mode may be provided In each case, the fast opening mode is used to achieve the bypass function.
  • Such different modes can be advantageously carried out control technology so usually without component technical change.
  • control the switching valve to generate a flow resistance modulating. Also, such a control is typically possible without design changes to the switching valve and can only be achieved by a software implementation in the control unit, which is advantageous.
  • the switching valve which may be provided according to the invention, is arranged in the flow to the heating circuits, then this is hydraulically arranged almost immediately downstream of the primary heat exchanger. If, which may also be provided according to the invention, the switching valve is arranged in the return to the heating circuits, the heating circuits are always open on the inlet side and connected to each other and to the return of the primary heat exchanger.
  • a particularly compact design results when the switching valve is integrated around the pump housing.
  • control for the changeover valve in the terminal box of the motor of the circulation pump is arranged, in particular in the field of control of an electronic speed controller provided for the engine or integrated in this.
  • the controller for the speed controller or controller is integrated in a digital microprocessor, which is usually only partially used in its capacity, so that the functions required for the control of the changeover valve can be advantageously integrated here.
  • here also with a few constructive Changes may be provided a separate controller in the form of a digital processor.
  • the already existing in the heater line of the heating circuit for domestic water heating is used as a bypass line for the primary heat exchanger during operation of the heating circuit for space heating.
